Community Garden

The Ayer Community Garden is a green space for cultivation of fresh vegetables, herbs and flowers where residents can learn and grow together.

  • The Garden will provide an opportunity for all members of our community to enjoy the health benefits of spending time outdoors while adding fresh produce to their diets, as
  • well as experiencing a sense of accomplishment from growing vegetables, herbs and flowers.
  • As a community-gathering place, the Garden will focus on educating Ayer Residents of all ages about sustainable gardening and healthy eating.
  • Additionally, it is our hope that the Ayer Community Garden will contribute to the betterment of the town by transforming currently unused land into a beautiful green space where a sense of community will be fostered.
  • As the gardening community grows, additional beds and sites will be created to meet the needs of the broader community. We anticipate the number of garden sites will expand, contributing to town resources for many years.

Ayer Community Garden member meetings for the 2023 season are held at the Garden.
